At first glance, selling things on eBay seems like a good deal. It still kind of is, as long as what you are selling is worth the time and effort. They take their cut off the top, then they have listing fees. Then they make you use PayPal and take a cut of that. Then you have to go to the post office and waste additional money on shipping and insurance, postage tape and applicable boxes or envelopes. When all is said and done and everyone has their slide, you are left with nothing.
